97 Ford Fiesta Encore 1.2 starts and runs well when cold but when it warms up theres and intermittent misfire and sometimes cuts out at junctions. New plugs fitted and no change but I'm reading the coil packs can be suspect on these. Anyone have any other ideas before I buy a new coil pack.

Thanks

When you replaced the plugs, did you change the HT leads as well? These are considered a service item, so it would be worth replacing them before the coil in any case.

Thanks for that. I didn't change the leads but now you suggested it, I'll get some replacements.

Only use genuine Ford - you;ll be back to square one else.
